I still get the paper version delivered, I didn't realise there was an
option to get an online version. If they did it as PDF I've be very
interested, not too keen on what you've just described though.

How can I opt in for the online version, I'm guessing it's via their
website? I'm guessing you can no longer download it to keep with the new
format?

Try

Good grief. That's awful. If you can't download it anyway, I much
prefer the version at http://www.embedded.com/

Actually, you probably can download that, with one of those programs
that downloads entire web sites.

That's the link for the July edition. They supposedly have a download
option (I wrote page above but I believe it is the whole issue) but it
doesn't work with Linux. Windows and Mac were supported, I believe.

I just tried the link and the magazine actually was working _much_ better.
Maybe it does pay to complain. Still doesn't appear to allow me to
downlad it, though.
